'Shadow' in the Bible

Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff, they comfort me.
How precious is thy loving-kindness, O God! So the sons of men take refuge under the shadow of thy wings.

{To the chief Musician. 'Destroy not.' Of David. Michtam; when he fled from Saul in the cave.} Be gracious unto me, O God, be gracious unto me; for my soul taketh refuge in thee: yea, in the shadow of thy wings do I take refuge, until the calamities be overpast.
For thou hast been my help, and in the shadow of thy wings will I sing for joy.

Such as inhabit darkness and the shadow of death, bound in affliction and iron,
He brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death, and broke their bands in sunder.
I am gone like a shadow when it lengtheneth; I am tossed about like the locust;
Man is like to vanity; his days are as a shadow that passeth away.
